2023 Recap – what an incredible year.
What an INCREDIBLE year indeed. Here is a recap of it all. I have SO much to be thankful for – most of all for my beagle and cavalier community – I couldn’t have done any of this without you all.
Nick – MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT finished the year as the #1 15 inch beagle for the 2nd year. He was recognized at the 2023 National Beagle Club as People’s Choice as voted by fellow breeders. He is in semi-retirement and will show in select shows in 2024 and beyond. We are also thrilled that he had 6 more of his progeny finish their CH titles and several others are close to finishing. These six gives him 12 CH get already. I am so thankful to the breeders who incorporated Nick into their program and am excited to see what happens next.
We had several champion beagles
McKinley – CH Kazuri’s Aint No Mountain High Enough (CH The Whims Legato x CH Hailstorm’s Feeling A Little Foxy at Kazuri)
Callie – CH Kazuri’s Everything’s Sugar N Spice (CH Bill T’s Rush to Alpenglow X CH Kazuri’s Everythings Coming Up Roses). She finished in the 13 inch TOP 20 for 2023
Murphy – CH Kazuri’s Everything’s Gonna Be Alright (CH Bill T’s Rush to Alpenglow X CH Kazuri’s Everythings Coming Up Roses) – lovingly owned by Sarah Smith-Falkner and Sarah Sweetman
Darwin – CH Kazuri’s While Dreams of Finches Danced In His Head (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT X CH Kazuri’s Dreaming of An Emmy)
Buck – CH Kazuri’s Call of the Wild (GCH Van-Mar N Kazuri Brewin’ Up Trouble X CH Kazuri’s Feeling The Siren’s Call)
Ivy – CH Kazuri’s Tangled Up In Trouble (GCH Van-Mar N Kazuri Brewin’ Up Trouble X CH Kazuri’s Feeling The Siren’s Call)
Nova – CH Kazuri’s All I Want is a Supernova (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT X Hailstorms Alouette)
Johnny Rose – CH JoyfulNoise N Kazuri Keeping Up With the Roses (BISS GCH Van-Mar The Duke of Hazzard X CH Kazuri’s Keeping Up Appearances) – bred with Dolly from Joyful Noise
Audrey – CH Rosehound’s Brown Eyed Girl at Kazuri (MBIS MBISS GCHP Kazuri’s All I Want For Christmas CGC TKN ATT X CH Foxtail’s Fast Curves) – bred by Bonnie and William Farrell and owned by Bonnie Farrell and Sarah Sweetman
And a Cavalier King Charles Champion also
Stevie – CH Kazuri’s You Are the Sunshine of My Life (CH Angels Pride Zakkary X LoKazuri Star Fourth In Line)
And a First time achievement for Sarah
I also won my first (personal) specialty show with Dutch (BISS GCH Van-Mar N Kazuri Brewin Up Trouble) bred by myself (Sarah Sweetman) and Chelsea Metteer and lovingly owned by Sarah Smith-Falkner, Sarah Sweetman and Chelsea Metteer. While my dogs have achieved this before, this was the first time I have been at the end of the leash for it.
I am so grateful for an incredible year of achievements. Let’s go 2024!!
7 week photos of the ckcs and beagle puppies as they play outside
The puppies are tiny dogs now and love nothing more than when they can play in the big yard with the big dogs. Right now the weather in the PNW is unpredictable and so we make the most of going outside every moment we can.
The cavaliers are growing confidence as the beagle puppies show them the ropes. Our golden is a perfect playmate as she is gentle and shows them big dogs are nothing to be afraid of. Even dogs that are visiting like Darwin the beagle, enjoy moments of play – even if they try to nurse from him.
I am enjoying every moment with these precious little ones. I have just under 2 weeks before the first of the beagles starts to fly the coup. Sigh.

Ckcs and beagle pups get their 6 week photos taken on the blue chair
The cavalier king charles and beagle pups love exploring and food. Their little personalities are starting to emerge and we are loving geting to know them.
please excuse the food on their faces – they had just enthusiastically eaten lunch and then had a little playtime – it’s real life when raising pups but we wanted to make the most of a short break in the rain and i didnt want to make them cold by giving them a full bath

Nellie’s cavalier ckcs pups and Mishkas beagle pups are 5 weeks old
These litters were born 4 days apart and developing together. While we don’t keep them together full time, we do allow them to have small play times together. Their pens are side by side and I find them trying to play with each other. It’s very cute.
So, enjoy the photos of them from this week in the garden. I dont think i will be able to contain them much longer for individual photos 🙂

Nellie and Gettys pups turn 4 weeks and venture outdoors
These precious cavaliers are starting to gain outside confidence as we slowly introduce them to the world outside. They were a little unsure at first but quickly started to explore around.
They are such sweet snuggly little ones. I cant wait for their personalities to start to emerge

Puppy and Pack playtime outside of
By 6-7 weeks, the beagle puppies are big enough to be introduced to the big yard and pack of adults – supervised of course. The older dogs love playing with them and the puppies adore the dogs.
I am so thankful for the beagles, cavaliers and our golden Shirley for teaching the pups about boundaries and play. They sleep really well after these play sessions.
Enjoy the photos of them
Mishka’s beagle puppies turn 2 weeks old
Mishka’s babies are thriving – they all have their eyes open and are starting to explore around the whelping pen. It’s fun to watch them move around and get strong on their little feet. I can’t wait for their little personalities to start shining through.
Enjoy the photos of them from this morning 🙂

Nellie’s pups are 2 weeks old
Nellie is doing a wonderful job as mom to her cavalier king charles puppies. They are all double their birth weight plus extra and I love to see them thriving so much. It is encouraging for sure.
Their eyes are starting to peep open and so I am sure they will be able to fully see in the next few days.
I love them so so much and can’t wait for their little personalities to start to come to life

Van-Mar and Kazuri win Hound Group 2 Breeders Showcase at the Southern California Kennel Club show
I couldn’t be prouder – this weekend, my co-breeder/co-owner and good friend Chelsea, along with stud dog owner Terri took two dogs that Chelsea and I bred together into a “breeders showcase”. This is where as a breeder, you can show off your breeding program. It just so happened that the two dogs entered were littermates from our Spencer x Puddin litter.
BISS Kazuri N Van-Mar Trouble at Tiffanys “Audrey”
& GCH Kazuri N Van-Mar Trouble In Texas “Tex”
The judge was breeder judge Mrs Heather Lindberg and she gave our kids a Hound Group 2!! WOW!! Talk about such an honor amongst some top Hound breeders in the country.
We are so so thrilled for this honor. Thank you to Terri and Dan for Spencer’s semen, Helen & Leigh for Pud and to Chelsea for being such a supportive and fantastic breeding partner. I am beyond proud!!
